ok so Yea It started doing it just after the new gasket install, and I didnt like slam a metal rod onto the top of the piston I just gently set it there, And I have both haynes and chiltons manuals and they aer both crap..
I looked for a timing mark on my crank.. The only problem is the Pulley Im usuing has Literally zero marking on it, Unorthodox..
So I know the honda usually fires like 13 or so degrees before TDC on the combustion stroke.. But I dont want to make Pistons and Valves a contact sport, should I
Marke the belt and the tooth its on and Advance 1 tooth at a time .. Or does it sound like the timing is retarded?? I would think If Im lacking high end The timing is to much on the retarded side.. I dunno tho
